Recently I've tried experimenting with pure THC. Yes, pure THC, I know for sure... It came to me as a liquid absorbed onto paper then smoked. When eaten it only causes an oily burning sensation. Has anybody else out there tried THC in its pure form?
I find when I smoke it, it results in a much different and cleaner high than regular old buds. Almost as if I've just been turned on and can focus with out all the excess time slowing and mental chatter. I actually prefer it to bud (except for the fact that it can completely kill an MDMA high for you when the two are combined,) due to the fact that I get rather paranoid or over-think myself when I do smoke.
I've also found that when smoking pot the day after getting rather high on pure THC, the pot will take on a new feel to it. Almost as if the THC has been diminished and the other canabinoids have been let out to play. In me personally it makes for one hyper-paranoid person talking about UFO's and street people Not fun for me but interesting.
Just some findings for the exciting world of cannabinoid chemistry.

Yeah id like to know this too, i just dont see someone soaking paper in "pure thc" as you would say. Smoking paper would be harsh also. The only way i think you would see pure thc on paper is like frizzantik stated. Someone who decided they wanted to smoke there marinol pills instead of swallowing them so they cracked it open and absorbed it onto paper. Or someone who is putting hash oil on paper to dry out so they can smoke it easier. But hey im no scientist so who knows

Look Ya'all, it is possible to do a synth on THC. It's not common but the real deal is out there. I was just lucky enough to get to try some when it came my way. Now can we please move this conversation back to the topic, the subjective effects of pure THC in any form V.S. regular pot. Trying to guess if my drugs were are or not will get us nowhere. Peace, Spinal

i agree with frizz, its most likely honey oil or maybe the contents of a marinol pill. i dont know much about marinol, but honey oil is extracted "pure" THC. however, it is a thick, viscocious liquid, and i dont know how easily it would absorb into paper....

well, i never heard of it, but id like to try it from the sounds of it..... from what it sounds like, the high is kinda like eating it.. in the ways ive read on this and a few other boards and sites... thc is fat soluble, and tons of people talk about making 'butter'.. heating up and melting some butter, then putting the bud or whatever in it, letting it take all the thc, then just throwing out the nug *since all the thc is gone*... there is also a post on here somewhere that is of a raver, or someone who usually does mdma, and ate it *with the method mentioned above* for the first time ever to do with pot, and she got like.... REALLY REALLY high, like, she described it, and it kinda sounded like being super stoned, only way more intense and with visuals or somethin...... just a little 'food' for thought...

Hrmmm......

Gee that sounds exactly like the high I get when vapourizing my bud in my Zap....

Yes, it seems that marinol would have similar effects since both are simply THC and nothing else. I've never tried actual Marinol, so I can't say for sure. The high was nothing like eating it though, more like good clean hash but still distinctly different. As for cost, about $40 for half and eighth's worth in bud. Peace, Spinal

Actually the effects you described do sound alot like vaporizing weed, my friend has a bong with a heat gun attatchment and that thing gets you soooo ripped but its a really clean high. Not so much of a body load, just a clean head high and it made me pretty alert. Also after smoking enough out of it you get very noticable visual distortions. Kind of like a mild mushroom trip. I guess thats as close to pure thc as im gonna get, consider you can take a whole bowl of dank and down it in one hit & all that happens is a really sweet tasting toke and all the plant material is left over with a brown tinge.

It is. A vaporizer is a device that heats the herb to the point where the THC will vaporize but the other various compounds (including the plant material) wont. Additionally, every time I've ever gotten my hands on good honey oil or "the juice" (purer THC than oil, as it was crystalline in structure and looked like 'wet' 5meoDMT) was a result of someone scraping the residue out of their vaporizer tube after extended use.

You can not do a "Synth" on THC... what the hell are you smoking anyways? jeez, where is Phreex when you need em!.

Now, your paper may be soaked in hash, or honey oil that may very well be almost 99% pure THC. I'll give you that, but you just can't mix up some chem's in the lab and get THC as a result. If it could be done, I REALLY doubt your in a position to be able to obtain it. Unless you have some very good connections to a govt or research lab.. and by good connections, I don't mean the guy down the street who sold you a baggie of "AK47, Hydro Grown BIG BUDZ!"

Common kits are available on the internet to do this, as well as instructions. The resulting product, could be put into honey, butter, soaked in paper, etc. This is what you have, it's not marinal, or anything else. Just a simple and easily produced condense THC oil.

Exactly - and even then it would be pure INSANITY to synth a substance that is so widely available and easy to extract! It literally grows on trees - there is almost no conceivable way synthesized THC would ever find it's way onto the market - and anyone that tried would lose a lot of money.

Yeah, I believe that is due to concerns over standardization and legality arising from large-scale extraction. Also - with Marinol you get ONLY delta-9-thc and none of the other cannabinoids we all know and love from smoking actual cannabis - I assume extracting a pure form of that chemical is a lot tougher than simply getting all the cannabinoids into some kind of chenical solution and evaporating it (like honey oil).

However - for any practical purposes other than getting FDA approval for a new medication - synthesis makes no sense at all...

Why would anybody go about making a synthesis of any of the chemicals we know as Research Chemicals? There's hundreds of chemicals in Cannabis that have yet to be explored. For a plant that so many of us use we know next to nothing about just what chemicals contribute to the high we get, or what those chemicals do on there own. Delta 9-THC may be the widest known, but it is only the tip of the iceberg in the chemistry of cannabinoids. Peace, Spinal

are we even sure its just the thc that gets us smashed in weed? I mean isn't Marinol not suppose to give you a buzz? and with all the chems in weed can we really narrow it down to just one that produces the effects?
